When to Travel to Bhutan?
Spring has the pear and apple blossoms which add a dainty touch to the valleys as their pink and white blooms add a sense of new wonder to the land that is about to burst with abundant growth again. The season starts from March and ends in May.
Summer is an abundant time of the year as flowers are in blooms and the valley are covered in green, weeping willows sweep the banks of the many rivers and the pine cones glisten in the sun, so full with resin they are ready to plummet to the ground. This season is a botanist’s delight as rhododendrons, wild azaleas, and masses of wildflowers including edelweiss cover the meadows like carpet. The season starts from June and ends in August.
Autumn casts a bright golden glow on the vast landscape and is one of the more crowded times of the year for tourism to Bhutan. In fall, rice fields ripen to a golden brown under crisp blue skies. The merry pink and white of cosmos flowers dot the countryside. The season starts from September and ends in late November.
Winter has its moments. The day are of sunshine while evenings can turn chilly though generously it is not too cold. The winter landscape lays bare the majesty of the mountains and the sweeping valleys. Soft tufts of cloud drape lazily over mountain tops as if waiting for new life to blow it across the landscape. The season starts from December and ends in February.
